Abstract

The measurements of vertical plasma drifts at magnetic equator using HF Doppler radar include contributions due to production and loss of electrons and also due to the equatorial electric field. From the computation of the electron density profiles, the temporal variation of electron density changes has been studied and the contribution of production and loss of electrons to the vertical plasma drift measurements using HF Doppler radar during daytime has been evaluated. The evaluation of vertical drifts has been made for different conditions of the ionosphere and for different zenith angles.
